GLANCES AND GREETINGS

Joshua Bradford

 

Glance.
Awaited moment.
Path space closes.

Greeting.
“So. . .” 
Greeting exchange.
“Well, . . .”
Greeting turned conversation.
“I’ll be doing. . .”
Conversation response.
“I’ll be there. . .”

Glances.
Up to smile and down again.
Eyes meet.
Path from oral cubicle onto a larger sphere.
Feet move forward. Feet find rhythm. Feet exchange rhythm.
One quick glance. Up and down. Down and up.
.up and Down .down and Up .glance quick One

Path opens to sunshine.
Glance friction.
Feet tempo - allegro.
Greetings compound and overlap in cued accelerandos:
“. . .So, why?. . .”
“. . .intimidate. . .”
“. . . ante-up. I like that. . .”
“. . . like to do . . . “
“. . . anything athletic . . .”
“. . . not athletic at all. . .”
“. . .not for everyone. . . love climbing on. . .”
“. . .climbing. . . yes. . .”
“. . .it’s so amazing. . .”
“. . .climbing. . . now. . .”
“. . .yes. . .of course. . .have to. . .”
“. . .What are you going to do now. . .”
“. . .my stop. . .”
“. . .I’m sorry. . . I’m doing my. . .”
“. . .I remember. . .seeing you. . .”
“. . .seeing you. . .”

Feet grab goodbyes.
One pair climb upon path to knowledge cubicle.
Glances catch smiles within each other’s spare second.
Path becomes wider between polyrhythmic feet.
